Top range of carnival fun Crazy hair, painted faces and plenty of rides will be among the highlights at the St Ambrose Primary School carnival next weekend. This year’s carnival will coincide with the Woodend Lions Club art show, with both to be held at the school on Saturday, March 18. Carnival-goers can also expect to be entertained at talent shows, jumping castles, Farmer Darryl’s animal farm, a treasure hunt and cupcake decorating. Principal Desmond Noack says the event showcases the best of the Macedon Ranges. “We are fortunate to live and work in a vibrant community where events such as our carnival are so well supported,” he said. “It’s fantastic that our two community events can run alongside one another. Carnival-goers will be able step away from the action on the school oval and be inspired by the work of local artists in St Ambrose Hall.” The festivities will run between 9.30am and 3.30pm at St Ambrose Parish Primary School, Templeton Street, Woodend.

Roo killing spree shock By Esther Lauaki At least seven kangaroos were shot and left for dead as a wave of cruel killings in recent weeks swamped volunteers, Macedon Ranges Wildlife Network has claimed. Network spokesman Marcus Ward appealed to residents to take a stand against cruelty after three kangaroos were shot illegally and one had its legs removed in the Newham area, near a Western Water reservoir.

Mr Ward said the killings were the latest in a series of incidents that has plagued the area over the past month. A young pinkie joey was left alive only to die of exposure in last week’s attack, he said. The latest casualties come only a couple of weeks after rescuers had to euthanase two kangaroos at Gisborne after one was shot in the neck and left suffering for more than 10 days. Another at Bolinda was shot in the neck and eventually starved to death.

Under the national code of practice, people must have a permit to shoot kangaroos and must ensure the animals have “a sudden and painless death”. “It’s very disturbing and we think that it’s likely that the shooters live in the area,” Mr Ward told Star Weekly. “With cruelty increasing towards wildlife, we urge the community to take a stand and report any suspicious activity to the police and the land, environment and water department.

“What we want is for neighbours to keep their eyes and ears open,” he said. “It’s an ongoing occurrence and we want it to stop.” Mr Ward said that Macedon Ranges Wildlife Network volunteers would be patrolling the Newham area over coming weeks, and would be reporting to authorities anything suspicious that they see or hear. “A huge thank-you to the rescuers,” he said. “If everyone can get on board and help, our wildlife will be better for it.”

Solar panels power through rising bills Australia, and will benefit more than 300,000 Victorian households with solar up top. Macedon Ranges Sustainability Group president Peter Lane said the new tariff price could boost the number of community energy projects springing up all over the state. “We find almost everyone is keen to reduce their carbon footprint, but the barrier to home-based solar is entry cost and payback period,” Mr Lane said. “The government’s decision to increase the feed-in tariff,

combined with the rapidly reducing cost of solar installations, and the emergence of finance providers, such as the Bendigo Bank, which offers purpose-driven “green loans” to fund a home owner’s installation, means that barrier is being rapidly removed.” An Essential Services Commission spokesman said the tariff increase is the result of a rise in wholesale power prices.

The value of group buy-ins to the emerging solar energy industry is coming into its own for Macedon Ranges residents with panels on their roofs. From July 1, the state’s solar feed-in tariff, a payment for the clean energy that solar feeds back into the grid, will more than double, from five cents to 11.3 cents per kilowatt hour. Last week’s announcement by the Essential Services Commission marks the highest standard feed-in tariff rate on offer around

Road backflip stuns campaigner By Esther Lauaki Long-time lobbyist and roads campaigner Russell Mowatt has slammed a Macedon Ranges council decision to block the duplication of the road that links Gisborne to New Gisborne. Mr Mowatt, a Gisborne Roads Group spokesman and a former councillor, said a recent decision to withdraw support for Station Road’s duplication under the Calder Freeway would undo years of work. Mr Mowatt chaired the roads group committee that took the proposal to council in 2013.

‘‘

It’s a matter of safety, and VicRoads has an obligation to fix up that - Russell Mowatt road

’’

“I’m very disappointed that councillors have done this,” he told Star Weekly. “Everything was done, a concept design … [VicRoads agreed to work towards it], but the new councillors have pulled the pin on it.” About 17,500 cars a day use the road and its freeway interchanges, which link Gisborne and Calder Freeway commuters to New Gisborne’s railway station. This number is expected to climb to 24,000 cars a day over the next two to five years. “Council didn’t have to put one cent into this proposal process because $270,000 was set aside in the state budget for it,” Mr Mowatt said. “It defies all logic. It’s a matter of safety, and VicRoads has an obligation to fix up that road.” The proposed duplication was considered in the Gisborne Movement Network Study, which was finalised at February’s council meeting after public consultation last June. The study will be used to plan infrastructure for the area. Mayor Jennifer Anderson said many submissions to the study had highlighted the importance of retaining the village character and tree plantings along Station Road. “It is estimated that traffic on this busy road

is set to double by 2036, and we know that truck movements are already a big issue, so we decided it was important to look at alternative solutions to having to duplicate Station Road, south of the Calder Freeway’s on and off ramps,” Cr Anderson said.

VicRoads project plans show Station Road’s proposed duplication being between Morrow Road and Webb Crescent, creating four lanes under the freeway overpass. The mayor said council wants to focus on options for an alternate truck route to reduce

Green waste fee blasted By Esther Lauaki

Dancing under stars in Sunbury

(Joe Mastroianni)

A New Gisborne resident feels her mother has been ripped off after being charged $50 to dump a trailer of green waste at the Woodend transfer station last week – a service that was meant to be free until July. After a barrage of criticism, Macedon Ranges council last November canned a new voucher scheme which would have given residents vouchers to dispose of two free trailer loads with their rates notice. The voucher scheme was to be introduced in January this year. The council will look at the scheme again in July. A council spokeswoman said the green waste service remained free for loads of up to approximately one cubic metre. But Cornelia Beckman said her elderly mother was charged when she visited the Woodend transfer station last week to drop off a load of green waste. “I’m furious,” Ms Beckman said. “My mother is an old-age pensioner and she has been charged $50 for what was touted as a free service by council.” She said her mother lived on a four-hectare property and relied on the free service to ensure fire hazards were cleared from her land. Ms Beckman said the trailer of green waste her mother disposed of was more than a cubic metre, but that she had never been charged in the past for similar loads. “My mother did not have a commercial-sized load of green waste so she should not have been charged regardless. The green waste she had was not a huge amount “We are trying to do the right thing and we get penalised for it.” Informaton: bit.ly/2lk3kcR

Dance raves under the stars, a talent show, live music, stalls, a carnival and street parade will be part of SunFest at Sunbury next weekend. The free three-day festival, which began after Sunbury rock festivals of the 1970s, has grown from its roots around kitchen tables played out in small community halls to one of the nation’s biggest volunteer-run festivals. More than 30,000 people come to town each year. First-time committee member Kate Topp says program highlights this year include the festival launch and talent shows on Friday night, a SunFest under the Stars concert and fireworks on Saturday, and a health expo, walk and fun run, and displays on Sunday. The first street parade, in about 1980, was organised with schools in the area. “This year’s grand street parade will feature many dozens of participants including local emergency services, schools, kinders and community groups,” Ms Topp says. “We’ll also have cheerleaders and bands and it will be a lot of fun. Sunbury Can Dance will feature dance schools from all around the area. “There will be plenty on for everyone to enjoy.” Details: www.sunfest.org.au TAYGAN, 12, JAKE, 7, AND DANIEL, 4

Luke Jackson’s locks are two years’ long, but they’re about to get the chop for a good cause. The seven-year-old was initially driven by fashion, but his parents have convinced him to donate his long hair to be made into wigs for children with cancer. Luke’s mission has inspired his Gisborne Primary School classmates to mark the big shave with a ‘crazy hair day’ on March 14.

New parks to let dogs run free By Laura Michell Dogs of Hume could soon run free in one of 11 new off-leash areas in parks around the municipality. Hume council has plans to create the new off-leash areas as part of its Dogs in Public Places review. There are presently 40 designated off-leash areas in the municipality. The council is proposing to open three new dog parks at Craigieburn and Sunbury, while developing another two at Roxburgh Park, and one each at Greenvale, Campbellfield and Attwood. And it wants people to send in their

feedback over the next month. A report last month identified gaps in off-leash dog areas, particularly at Craigieburn and Roxburgh Park. It found off-leash areas were important because owners can exercise their dogs in safe and appropriate locations without disturbing the environment and other park users. There are 18,829 dogs registered in Hume, 6385 in Sunbury, and 3573 in Craigieburn. The review also recommended eight areas where dogs should be prohibited, including Craigieburn’s Amberfield Grassland, Somerton Red Gum Reserve and Broadmeadows’ Maygar Grasslands.

Mayor Drew Jessop said the review, with the proposed new off-leash areas, is open for public submissions by Thursday, April 13. He said the aim of the review was to identify opportunities to foster responsible dog ownership. “Hume residents are passionate about their pets. It’s important that we plan for and provide an environment where animals and people co-exist peacefully,� he said. There will also be information sessions at SunFest on Saturday, March 18, 11am-4pm, and the Broadmeadows Street Festival on Sunday, April 9, 1-7pm. Details: www.hume.vic.gov.au/yoursay

Survey seeks health solutions Health services in the Macedon Ranges have come together to survey residents about their needs. Residents are being asked for their feedback on health priorities via a short online survey, which finishes this Friday (March 10). The survey is an initiative of the Central Victorian Primary Care Partnership, and involves Cobaw Community Health, Kyneton District Health, Macedon Ranges Health, Macedon Ranges council and Windarring. Partnership chief executive Shelly Lavery said the survey will help the organisations with health planning and the development of specific services over the next four years. “It is great to see collaboration on health planning starts with organisations asking community members what is important to them in relation to health and wellbeing,� Ms Lavery said. Survey questions range from those asking how local services, such as sports grounds and public transport, help with healthy lifestyles, to whether climate change is affecting mental and physical wellbeing. It also asks respondents to rate the inclusiveness of their communities as a measure of good health. Paper copies of the survey are available from each health organisation, or it can be completed online at www. surveymonkey.com/r/MRsurvey2017. Information: 5472 5333 Esther Lauaki

Land release a bid to peg prices By Esther Lauaki Sunbury’s new precinct structure plans will underpin the state government’s push to get a steady flow of new house and land packages onto the market to tackle Melbourne’s affordability crisis. Planning Minister Richard Wynne said last week the government will boost land supply and cut red tape to ensure no delays in approvals and to make housing more affordable. About 15,000 house blocks will be released to fast-track new suburbs and development in Hume, about 9000 lots at Sunbury South and

6000 along Lancefield Road. These are among 100,000 new lots destined to come onstream across Melbourne over the next two years, creating as many as 17 new suburbs, including those already earmarked in the Sunbury South and Lancefield Road precinct structure plans. The minister said the aim is to build up a four-month stock of lots for sale in Melbourne’s growth corridors to create a more competitive housing market. “This is all about ensuring there is plenty of new housing coming to market to suit the varied needs of Victorian families, to stay ahead of population growth and make new homes as

affordable as possible,” Mr Wynne said. Community consultation on Sunbury’s new precinct structure plans (PSPs) only just wrapped up last month. The PSPs are being prepared by the Victorian Planning Authority in conjunction with Hume council. Victorian Planning Authority chief executive Peter Seamer said the latest announcement will pave the way for several new communities in Melbourne’s north. “It is important to note these plans include development levies that developers must pay to fund vital infrastructure and community facilities, often hundreds of millions of dollars,”

Mr Seamer said. But his office could not define how it would work with the development industry to ensure affordability of new housing. Nor could the authority tell Star Weekly whether medium density housing would be included in Sunbury South precinct, where there are plans for a new railway station that would terminate Metro train services before the Sunbury town centre. The government’s latest announcement comes just weeks after it was criticised again by the Epping North and Wollert communities for adding more houses to areas already struggling with inadequate services and infrastructure.

Art campaign a success Students, staff and parents have celebrated the end of a long campaign to rebuild New Gisborne Primary School’s art room, which was gutted by fire six years ago. The school community’s marathon campaign for a replacement building began after the fire in June 2011 until funding was finally secured in the 2015 state budget. Works finally began on the $772,000 art space redevelopment in September last year. At last week’s re-opening, Macedon MP Mary-Anne Thomas acknowledged the campaign, led by parents of the school, to ensure their children had the creative arts facilities they believe they deserve. “This is not just an art room, this is a success story of a government listening to a grassroots community campaign, led by parents to ensure their kids were not overlooked,” Ms Thomas said.

“After four years of inaction under the previous government, New Gisborne Primary School has finally had its much-loved art room replaced.” “The staff, leadership and learning opportunities at New Gisborne Primary School are first-class, and I am proud to say that now the school will have art facilities to match.” www.schoolbuildings.vic.gov.au.

MY PLACE History holds a special place in Mal Closter’s heart. The former Kyneton teacher shared his story with Esther Lauaki. What’s your connection with the Macedon Ranges? I transferred to a technical high school and moved to Kyneton with my wife, Karen, and our two young daughters in 1983. Both attended the excellent local government schools. How long have you lived in the area? We moved into a teacher house in Kyneton 35 years ago. When the department decided to sell the house, we bought it and have lived in it ever since.

Why the keen interest in history? I had a very good history teacher at high school and so I guess it started from then. When I first arrived in Kyneton, I was involved with my family and settling into the school. After a few years, I joined the Kyneton Historical Society, primarily to research the history of our house. After 15 years, I had done about one hour of research on the house, the rest of the time has been finding information for others. The information from the old Kyneton Guardian newspapers is great reading. What other hats do you wear in the community? Friends of the Botanic Gardens, Friends of the Kyneton Museum, Macedon Ranges Heritage Council and Discover Historic Kyneton. This latter group has been placing plaques on historic places around Kyneton. This information is about to be published as a book.

(Dennis Manktelow)

Some may remember you as a Kyneton secondary teacher. What did you teach? I taught mathematics from year 7 through to year 12. I retired in 2013, after teaching in Kyneton for 30 years.

Why do you think it’s important to preserve and share history? Sharing the history means that more people know how important it is and, hopefully, they will then realise that once it’s gone it can never be replaced. Kyneton was once called “the gateway to history” … I’m not sure it still has that name now.

What would surprise people to know about you? I am a collector of Phantom comics and also old history and garden books on the Macedon Ranges area.

Macedon Ranges is unique in that it has three botanic gardens. As far as I know, no other shire can match this.

What is the best thing about the Macedon Ranges? The historic buildings, the gardens and the What’s your favourite place to spend time? Any of the old gardens in the shire, some of the people who give many hours volunteering to make it a better place. private gardens are fantastic.

Acriflavine shapes as potential hero in superbug battles

Made from coal tar, the yellow-brown lotion was once applied to all the dings and grazes of kids – but it first came into use during World War I. Identified as an antiseptic by German scientists in 1912, acriflavine was used on soldiers to treat wounds and kill parasites that cause sleeping sickness – a potentially fatal tropical disease. In fact, the medical world agrees, acriflavine saved uncountable soldiers’ lives. Recent study results released by the Hudson Institute of Medical Research in Clayton reveal that acriflavine – off the radar for at least 50 years – is potentially stepping again into a big-time saviour role.

The findings of the study, led by Dr Michael Gantier and Dr Genevieve Pepin in the Nucleic Acids and Innate Immunity Group at Hudson Institute, have recently been published in the prestigious journal, Nucleic Acids Research.

How to keep baby cool, happy and safe Littlies are very susceptible to heat stress and, according to Child & Youth Health (www.cyh. com), there are signs and symptoms to watch out for. These include: • Looking unwell. • Floppy limbs and body. • Raised irritability levels. • Drier skin. • Refusing to drink and fewer wet nappies • Fontanelle (soft spot in bub’s head) lower than usual.

If these signs are observed, take the child immediately to a GP or nearest emergency department. There are simple ways to avoid this unwelcome scenario and to keep bub cool in the heat: • Maintain fluid intake through extra breast or formula feeding, or small amounts of cool, boiled water. • Give toddlers frozen fruit (watermelon, orange segments) to suck. • Dress lightly – nappy and singlet is ideal. • Regular sponge-downs with lukewarm (never cool or cold) water – or pop them into a lukewarm bath. • Use a fan, but do not point directly at the child. • Don’t let babies sleep in prams, which can be

hot and stifling; remove bassinet pads and liners for better air circulation • Place cool, damp cloths on baby’s body – but regularly check they’re not getting too cold. Try to avoid car travel when temperatures soar, but if it’s absolutely necessary: • Ensure protection from direct sun – use a towel or shade device on car windows. Fine baby skin burns easily and even when outside temperatures aren’t really high car interiors can heat up to dangerous levels quickly – even with air-conditioning on. • Never shade a capsule with a rug or towel – this will restrict air movement and make baby’s environment even hotter.

This new residence is on about 35 hectares in what is widely considered a dress circle location, with Mt Macedon views and a 10-minute drive to Woodend’s village centre, through the pretty Tylden hamlet, or a 10-minute trek to Trentham then Daylesford beyond. Backing onto Little Coliban River, the highly productive land of red volcanic soils suits most farming enterprises. The house has the contemporary elements of plank flooring, light-bouncing colour palette and black-framed windows showing off endless views. Four bedrooms share two sleek bathrooms, and there’s a study. The kitchen, with walk-in pantry, all mod-cons and island bench, has the requisite sparkle to make it an entertainment hub and an enviable culinary workspace. The environs feature sweeping lawns and a wide driveway; they just await landscaping.

This property of about 16.6 hectares is set up for horses, with five day yards, three box stables (or two plus tack room), round yard, water troughs, horse wash, three big farm sheds and convenient parking areas and turning circles for floats and transport. Good fencing, plenty of water tanks, a bore and massive, tree-edged dam are other desirable elements. In a garden setting, the house has four bedrooms, the main with walk-through wardrobe and en suite. Exposed brickwork and beamed timber-lined ceilings are features in carpeted lounge-dining room and tiled family room, the latter adjoining the kitchen with dual-level breakfast bar and cupboard pantry. A huge undercover entertainment area looks out to lawns and rural views. Clarkefield train station is eight minutes away and Melbourne Airport about 30.

On a level and leafy block of about 6890 square metres, this brick veneer of about 30 squares has all the ingredients a family looks for – including two separate living zones of an open, carpeted lounge room and a family hub that incorporates a carpeted rumpus/games zone. The meals zone sits within the embrace of a wide bay window, and the kitchen has a breakfast bench for six and stainless-steel underbench oven and gas cooktop. Of the four bedrooms (one ideal as a study), the main has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite with dual basins. The property also has an integrated, remote-controlled triple garage, a circular driveway, an 8 x 14-metre workshop with concrete floor and power, a paved entertainment area, red volcanic soil, perimeter windbreak plantings, and a large grassed area for recreation or a pony paddock.

This one, on about 3.2 hectares of gently undulating land, fits the bill equally as a fab weekender or permanent residence, taking in 360-degree rural panoramas. It has two large, floorboarded bedrooms that share a bright, skylit bathroom with a big shower and good storage. A large living room, with floorboards, wood heater and built-in cabinetry, has banks of windows to maximise light and views, while the big galley kitchen has timber-trimmed cabinetry, plenty of bench space and a gas cooker. Outside, find a shed with dual doors, concrete floor and power, an undercover deck, tank, bore and dam water, a sheltered picnic area, under-house storage, a variety of trees and shrubs, and an integrated carport. Melbourne Airport is within about 35 minutes.

Price: $775,000

In a lovely leafy enclave on the edge of town – but still within a three-minute drive of Main Street shops and the local primary school – this bagged-brick residence on about 1.08 hectares has a pretty garden setting streetside. Out back, Five Mile Creek forms its boundary, the tree-lined banks of which create a picturesque picnic spot – covered seating and firepit included. The house originally had a smaller footprint, but a later extension has developed a floor plan that is more conducive to spread-out family life.

Private sale The interior decor is multi-hued, with white roman blinds at many windows, beige carpet and slate floor tiles. Entry is to an enclosed foyer, to the right of which is an L-shaped lounge-dining room. French doors lead from here to a rear patio amid fragrant rose beds. The kitchen and part-tiled, part-carpeted family-meals hub have big windows that bring the outdoors in. Timber cabinetry, laminate benches, a cupboard pantry, Haier dishwasher, a wall oven and 900mm gas cooktop fit out the cooks’ domain.

Along a carpeted hallway are the bedrooms, a laundry with closet, a separate toilet, and the gleaming main bathroom. Each bedroom has its own colour scheme. The main has a walk-in wardrobe and a revamped en suite with glossy wall tiles, a 2pac white vanity unit and white timber blinds. A kids’ retreat space, ideal as a study, is also down this end of the house. The family hub opens out onto an expansive concrete sitting area – a pergola here would finish this area perfectly. The

remainder of the fenced backyard has pretty gardens and a vegie box.

FOOD REVIEW STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir finds a new reason to love Asian fusion … Asian fusion? We’ve been won over, particularly by West of Kin at Braybrook. But there, the food is ambitious and the tone quite flash. At Cheeky Chewies, a bright new arrival at Laverton, the vibe is more everyday cafe, with asking prices to match – there’s nothing above $20 and most of the more hefty dishes clock up about $16. Actually, while Cheeky Chewies is self-described as offering “Asian fusion”, truth is this place is more about mixing, on the one hand, Western-style fare (a parma, fish and chips) with, on the other, pretty much straight-up Asian offerings. Over two lunches on successive days, Bennie and I eat very well, with only a couple of minor flat spots. Service is top-notch. On our first visit, we tackle a bunch of the small dish offerings on the menu. Chilli wontons (five for $10) are dynamite, the delicate casings housing lovely pork mince filling, with a zingy vinegar chilli sauce. Super Crispy Chicken Wings (four for $8.90) are more wingettes, but are excellent. Nothing flash is served here – simply superbly cooked, unoily chook. My heart sank a little when I saw a bottle sweet chilli sauce, but thankfully that jam-like concoction is served on the side, and is ignored. Cheezy Pumpkin Bags (three for $8) display the same expert frying, but we detect none of the advertised cheesiness – just pumpkin. And the dipping sauce tastes like plain old

CHEEKY CHEWIES CAFE Address: 18 Aviation Road, Laverton Phone: 9369 9913 mayo, though we’re told it’s “homemade honey mustard sauce”. The lesson here, I suspect, is never order anything involving pumpkin. The What-A-Burger ($16.90) is okay, the nice slab of pork having a good lemongrass kick. But for the price, this offering seems a little austere when there are so many high-powered burger options across the west at similar prices. The Cheeky Chewies nasi lemak ($14.90) is wonderful – better, fresher and more interesting than in regulation Malaysian eateries. If there’s one thing that prevents nasi lemak being as popular with us as, say, pho or Hainan chicken rice, it is the inclusion of anchovies. Invariably, they seem stale, nasty blemishes. Here at Cheeky Chewies, they are prepared in-house and the result is winning. The sticky chunk of chook rendang is fine, but the real triumph is the house-made sambal. It’s only mildly spicy, but has a rich, deep flavour with a touch of smokiness. Our Thai-style pork/noodle salad ($14.90) is excellently fresh with just the right mix of chilli and lemon. The cafe lattes ($3.90) are superb. Kenny Weir is the founder of Consider the Sauce, the definitive guide to eating in Melbourne’s western suburbs – www.considerthesauce.net

SPORT Final day joy for Bulls, Romsey By Tara Murray Bacchus Marsh and Romsey were the big winners, Diggers Rest Bulla and Rupertswood were the main losers, and Sunbury was the lucky team in the final round of the Gisborne and District Cricket Association’s McIntyre Cup. With six sides still in the mix for a top-four finish and finals spots, Saturday was always going to be a matter of winners and losers. Bacchus Marsh, which started the round in fifth position, secured a home semi-final with an outright victory against Rupertswood. The Bulls had already taken first innings points on day one and didn’t let up on Saturday. They piled on the runs early before declaring at 5-301. Peter Lalor finished with an unbeaten 155. Rupo needed to bat out the day to avoid an outright defeat, but despite a positive start was all out for 132. Karl Sutherland top-scored with 33.

Three players took three wickets each for the Bulls. The win moved the Bulls into second spot on the ladder above Gisborne, Sunbury and Diggers Rest Bulla. The Bulls will host Gisborne in the semi-finals. The Dragons will enter the finals on the back of a big win against Sunbury. Having made 7-306 on day one, the Dragons restricted Sunbury to 168. Jason Wilson took 3-9. Craig Ballinger almost played a lone hand for Sunbury, scoring an unbeaten 91. The Dragons made 3-55 in their second innings. The last time the Bulls and Dragons met, the Bulls won by four runs. Sunbury, which was on top of the ladder for much of the season, had a nervous wait to find out if it will play finals. It needed bottom side Romsey to knock off Diggers Rest Bulla and ladder leaders Riddell to beat Woodend. Sunbury’s wishes came true.

Romsey’s 8-203 was enough to seal a win against the Burras, who could only manage 193. Taylor Stevenson was the pick of the bowlers, taking 5-59. As well as ending the Burras’ finals hopes, the win ensured Romsey stays in McIntyre Cup next season by moving above Rupertswood on the ladder. Rupertswood’s return to the top grade lasted just a season – its bottom finish means it will be relegated. Riddell will enter the finals as favourite on the back of eight straight wins. It scored another comprehensive win on Saturday, the Bombers ending Woodend’s finals hopes. Defending 7-302, the Bombers bowled Woodend out for 207. Marcus Stewart top-scored with 48. Matthew Livingstone took four wickets for the Bombers, with Jack Baker taking three. The Bombers will face Sunbury in the other semi-final.

Sports shorts Cricket

Gisborne is on the hunt for a new senior cricket coach for next season. Premiership-winning coach Simon Harman is stepping down after two years at the helm of the Gisborne and District Cricket Association club. Harman is likely to stay on as a player. The club will advertise for a non-playing coach in the near future.

Soccer

Sunbury United is through to the third round of the Victorian stage of the FFA Cup. United, which played its first match of the competition on Saturday, defeated East Bentleigh Strikers 2-1. United attacked early, with Daniel Sousa scoring in the third minute and Jake McIntyre scoring a minute later. Strikers reduced the margin to one goal in the 27th minute but couldn’t find an equaliser.

BMX

Riders from across the state travelled to Sunbury to compete in the Sunbury BMX club’s event on Saturday. There were 75 riders competing across the age groups, including 19 in the three to eight-year-old age group. Zachary Watters took out the eight boys competition, Flynn Medhurst won the nine boys and Samuel Todd took out the 10 boys. In the 11 boys, Noah Mason-Weber won. Tia Soderman won the 12-14 girls, Austin McNair won the 13-14 boys and Trevor Weber got another win in the 30 plus men. Robert Slatter won the open men’s competition.

Jets coach signs five with posh pedigree Sunbury Jets have named the first pieces of the jigsaw as they assemble their Big V men’s division 1 squad for 2017. The first group of five players includes two from last season’s squad and a former Jets junior returning to the club. The first player new coach Lanard Copeland signed was young star Jacob Formosa, 20, who played with Altona Gators in Big V before heading to Malta. “Jacob is a very talented point guard who grew up in Melbourne and attended the Australian Basketball Development College,” Copeland said. “He was a standout player who’s very quick, has great size and was pursued by many college programs in the US. He decided to pass on the

college pathway to pursue a professional career in Malta where he’s become a great player.” Damian O’Keefe returns to the Jets having played in championship division side Whittlesea Pacers the past few years. “Damian is a very versatile player and defender wih great range and precision,” Copeland said. Another championship division player joining the Jets is New Zealander Te Puao Silver, who played under Copeland at Hume City Broncos and previously played for Werribee Devils. “Te Puao Silver, affectionately known as ‘Tips’, is one of the best defenders I’ve seen,” Copeland added. “He can lock an opponent

down on call and, on top of being a solid player, he’s a great guy.” Daniel Jackson and Liam Platt return this season for the Jets. Jackson has played more than 20 games for them in each of the past two seasons, while Platt last year registered 15. Copeland said it was good to have two locals returning as part of a restructured men’s program. “Both guys have brought plenty of energy and work ethic to training sessions.” The Jets were knocked out in the first week of finals last season. They’re expected to name the rest of their signings over the next few weeks. Tara Murray

31 SUNBURY & MACEDON RANGES STAR WEEKLY \ MARCH 7, 2017

SPORT STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

Macedon mad keen on making winning tilt at flag Macedon – the Riddell District Netball League’s surprise packet last season – has every intention of keeping that momentum going. The Cats were unknowns last season, but made it through to the final game of the year, losing to Riddell by four goals. The Cats have kept the majority of last season’s squad together and are primed for another tilt at the premiership. They have added former Rupertswood defender Katie Clarke, who was named in the RDNL team of the year last season, and young gun Tayla Hardiman. Holly Burnip is the only departure. Macedon playing coach Ciara Stewart said the side would be just as strong as last year. “Katie and I are great friends – she wanted

a change and we were happy to have her,” she said. “It just suited her, and at that stage we didn’t know we had lost Holly. “We’ve got a lot of experience with Katie and Janelle [Birch] in defence, and I think they’ll click quickly.” Stewart said Hardiman was meant to play for Macedon last year, but was prevented from doing so by Victorian Netball League commitments. “She’s not playing that this year,” Stewart said. “Tayla is a goaler-wing attack. We have a lot of different options.” The biggest challenge for the Cats this season will be how to handle the Victorian Netball League duties of some players. Last season, the Cats had no VNL players; this season they

have three, with Chloe Wilson, Janelle Birch and Chelsea Kemp all having been selected for teams. Stewart said that while she was thrilled for the three girls, it did make training more difficult. “The biggest challenge will be training together every week which was our strength last season,” she said. “The girls are getting good coaching elsewhere, but it’s not the same as training together. “Everyone but Tara [Burnip] and Katie play together on a Tuesday night, so we hope that’s enough.” Stewart said there had been a few changes in the Mecdon’s other three sides. Long-term

Macedon finds its heart By Tara Murray A heart to heart between Macedon players after their disastrous loss to Lancefield in round 11 was the catalyst for the side’s late season form in Gisborne and District Cricket Association’s B grade. Since that loss, Macedon has won three of its four matches, with the fourth match ending in a draw when rain prevented an all but certain win. Macedon captain-coach Gary De Rosayro said the outright loss to Lancefield was the kick in the pants the players needed. “It wasn’t through a lack of ability – we lacked a bit of heart in the second innings and we had a long chat about it,” he said. The turnaround in form ensured Macedon was in the box seat to grab a finals spot heading into the final round. All it needed was a victory against St Anthonys to seal fourth spot. Macedon had made 221 on day one and did it with ease on Saturday, bowling the Saints out for 124. Tim Dawe and Daniel Trotta took three wickets each for Macedon. De Rosayro said the players enjoyed having their finals destiny in their own hands. “We’re ecstatic as there was a bit of pressure on us with Bacchus Marsh breathing down our neck,” he said. “It was in our own hands and that’s the way we liked it. In previous seasons, we’ve had to rely on other results to play finals.” De Rosayro said that despite the three top teams being clearly the best sides this season, he thought Macedon could mix it with them come finals. Macedon will play Wallan and Lancefield will face Sunbury United, with both finals being knockout matches. He said extra experience had played a big role in helping the side be more consistent this season. “We have competed well against Wallan and United,” he said. “Lancefield has been the sticking side for us. “The side is a bit different to last year – we’ve got more players of an older age and have been more consistent. “Last season we had juniors coming through who did a good job but weren’t quite up to this level.” Wallan sealed top spot with victory over Lancefield in a top-of-the-table clash. Needing 254 for victory, the Magpies made 6-271. All eight batsmen for the Magpies reached double figures. Nathan Malone and Lyndon Thompson took two wickets each. Sunbury United will enter its semi-final against Lancefield on the back of a massive win against East Sunbury. United made 8-206 in reply to East Sunbury’s 147. Bacchus Marsh consigned Ashfield to a winless season with a big victory.

injuries will mean a very different looking B-grade side, while Stewart said they were looking for the C-grade side to be competitive. Stewart said the club was looking at bringing more junior players through to the under-19 side, which made the grand final last year. She said the target for the senior team was at least finishing in the top four and that the players were hungry for success after getting so close last year. “People know who we are now,” she said. “We’ve got a real mix of old and young, and new and old players.” The Cats will start their season by playing Woodend-Hesket on April 8. Tara Murray

Bombers back youth tactics Riddell will follow the same philosophy in season 2017 that got it to last year’s Riddell District Football League grand final. The Bombers put a heavy focus on youth last season and reaped the rewards, with the side coming from fourth on the ladder and within seven points of a premiership. It took until extra time for Diggers Rest to get over the line against the Bombers. Jamie Elliott, in his second year coaching Riddell, said a youth policy had again been on the agenda in the off season. “We’ve had some ups and downs and still trying to finalise our list,” he said. “It’s been a little bit of a slow off season. We kept most of the kids. We wanted to consolidate and we’re now just plugging holes a bit.” There have been some key departures for the Bombers. Forward James Nolan has moved to the Northern Territory, while Jack Baker has gone to Gisborne and Cameron Casson to Sunbury Lions. Elliott said there could be a couple more losses before the season starts. He said Brian Ruffell, and Brayden and Jason Allen were undecided about playing on. “A few fellows are unsure if they are going on again,” Elliott said. “Jimmy has gone to Darwin with his partner and he’s got a good opportunity up there.” Elliott said that if Ruffell joined the other departees, there would be a potential overall loss of about 140 goals. “It’ll then come back to coaching – if we’ve got a small line-up, we’ll play quick, or if we have talls, we’ll go longer,” he said. Elliott said the Bombers would still have a really good small brigade, but they were looking for a couple more talls to complete the squad. Ollie Messaoudi, who comes across from Gisborne, heads up the players the Bombers have brought in. They include a couple of players with basketball backgrounds, while a few players from the under-18.5s will likely push for senior spots. Elliott said the likes of the Walsh boys, Tim and Scott, and Matt Said had been among the standouts during training. Lachie Henson and Matt Panuccio are a couple of the younger guys who are taking things to the next level. The Bombers will start the season against Diggers Rest, in a rematch of last year’s grand final, on April 8.

Top coach, new director to steer Sunbury girls’ footy

The Sunbury Lions junior girls program has added the reigning AFL Victoria senior coach of the year to its coaching panel. Travis Hodgson has been named co-coach of the under-18 youth girls side alongside Damien Prespakis. Hodgson, who coached Bacchus Marsh to a drought-breaking flag in the Ballarat Football League last season, will juggle coaching the Lions youth girls side and Cobras senior side in 2017. Prespakis has previously coached juniors at Romsey. New youth girls director of coaching Ron Sikora, who had been coaching the under-18s, said Hodgson had seen first-hand the Lions program and wanted to get involved. “I’ve been coaching Travis’s daughter the past two years,” Sikora said. “I’ve built up a relationship with him. He knows what sort of

standards we set and wants to help us keep them.” Phoebe Sikora will coach the under-15 side, having been an assistant coach last season. “She’s been working with Dynamic Footy Skills and has done a lot of hours coaching.” Ron Sikora was originally going to step back from coaching at the Lions this season and focus on progressing his career. He’s been appointed reserves coach at VFL women’s club Melbourne University, but his love for the Lions has seen him also appointed under-12 girls coach. It’ll be the first time the Lions have had an under-12 girls team. “I tried to keep my nose out, but the under-12s are a good age to get good habits into players,” Sikora said. The Lions are now focusing on ensuring they have plenty of players for each side. The Lions are the only club in Sunbury to field teams

from under-12s through to seniors, and they also have Auskick, which younger girls can be involved in. The three junior sides will play in the Essendon District Football League. Sikora says they still need players for all age groups. The women will again be coached by Kerry Saunders. “We’re doing school visits and clinics to get more girls playing,” Sikora said. “We’ve got a couple of registration days coming up and we’ve got good systems in place.” The Lions have had 11 girls selected to join the Calder Cannons program this year. The girls’ TAC Cup competition started on Saturday, while the Cannons start their season on March 19. The Lions train Wednesdays and Fridays.

Thrilling finals set the scene Carla Krizanic led Sunbury’s only winning rink, but it was enough to defeat Preston-Reservoir. (Shawn Smits)

Finals showcase Sunbury By Tara Murray Sunbury didn’t put its best bowling out on the green on Saturday, but it didn’t matter as the side did enough to secure a Bowls Victoria Pennant division 1 section 1 finals spot. Needing just one more point than Essendon (2) in the final round of the season, Sunbury was confident of making finals playing bottom team Preston-Reservior. Sunbury, though, won just one rink and split a second for its 90 (13)-85 (5) win. Werribee did Sunbury a favour by knocking off the more favoured Essendon side 82 (14)-67 (4), which meant Sunbury finished fourth, six points clear of Essendon. Sunbury’s David Glennon said while it wasn’t the big defeat of Preston-Reservoir they had been hoping for, they were relieved to have made finals. Sunbury’s top bowler Australian representative Carla Krizanic led the winning

rink 26-15. Shane Trewarne was one of the standouts in that rink. Brad Willoughby’s rink tied 21 a piece; Brad Janner’s rink lost 26-22, and Mark Cowan’s rink lost 23-21. “In the end, we only needed one more point than Essendon, as we would have got up on them on percentage,” Glennon said. “Preston-Reservoir had only won one game for the season, so we were expecting to win 16-2, 18-0 win but it wasn’t the case.” The finals spot comes in Sunbury’s first season back in division 1. Sunbury now plays minor premier Fitzroy Victoria in a knock-out semi-final. Sunbury enters the finals on the back of two wins, having lost three games before that. Glennon said making finals this season was a bonus for the side, which includes several players in their first year at the club. “We couldn’t have imagined making finals at the start of the season,” he said. “We were just

looking to consolidate our spot in division 1. We’ve got nothing to lose … anything now is a bonus.” Last time the two teams met in round 14, Fitzroy Victoria won 99 (18)-65 (0). “We lost 18-0, but Carla and Brad Willoughby had close losses,” Glennon said. “Hopefully we’ll learn from that … we know what to expect on their synthetic green. We’re not going in cold like we did three to four weeks ago.” Glennon said there would be a full list of players to choose from for the final. Four of Sunbury’s other five sides will also feature in finals’ action. The division 4 side and division 7 section 3 team both finished on top of the ladder. Division 5 side division 7 section four teams finished fourth. The only side to miss finals was the division three side, which finished fifth, four points behind fourth. Glennon said it was a fantastic achievement for the club to have so many sides playing finals.

If the division 2 and 3 grand finals are anything to go by, the Central Highlands Bowls Division’s division 1 grand final will be a thriller. The two lower grade grand finals were both decided by less than three shots on Saturday, with no team able to take control of their matches. In division 2, Bacchus Marsh came out on top against Diggers Rest by two shots, 99-97. Craig McAuliffe and John Fordham led the winning rinks for Bacchus Marsh, 29-21 and 23-20 respectively. Rod Treweek and David Odgers were the winning skips for Diggers Rest. The division 3 grand final was almost as close, just three shots separating Lancefield and Macedon at the end. Lancefield will now be hoping to claim the first of two premierships in the next week. Lancefield, had Michael Walsh and Keith Webb as winning skips, claiming two of the three rinks in its 75-72 scoreline. Lancefield’s other Saturday side faces Gisborne in the division 1 grand final at Kyneton Golf this week. The midweek pennant grand finals are also played this week, with Kyneton Golf taking on Gisborne in division 1, Trentham playing Kyneton in division 2, and Macedon matched with Kilmore in division 3.

ROD’S VERDICT Breathtaking, inspiring, exultant.

t would be easy to be intimidated by a car like this, yet driving it turns out to be easy, even just popping down to the shops. The power is phenomenal and delivered with such disarming smoothness it’s easy to go into deep illegality without realising. Overtaking is ridiculously simple, you’re out and back in a flash even on half pedal. Don’t give this car full pedal until you’re completely prepared for what happens. The acceleration presses you back in your seat so hard you’ll hang onto the wheel more as an anchor than a control. Suburban housewife gets to 100km/h in 4.5 seconds, experiences jubilation. The GTR is beautifully finished and appointed, even the base (non-leather) edition, but forget the back seat, even for children. The gap between it and the front seat is something you’d post a letter through. The boot is good for a weekend away with a couple of soft bags and maybe a case of wine. I’m surprised I liked this car so much. Just note that you will need to keep your cute little hatchback for any task other than sheer indulgence.

ruly exciting. Give the GTR some gas mid-corner and the rear simply digs in for prodigious grip. The more pedal you give it, the harder it digs in and the faster it goes around. There has to be a limit to this and I’m truly relieved I didn’t reach it. Yet the ride quality, while certainly firm, isn’t sharp. Excellent seating helps to make the GTR surprisingly comfortable over long distances. There’s a cacophony of mechanical noises – tyres, transmission, driveline and glorious engine burble as the big V6 rockets to 7500rpm. For an enthusiast this is a symphony, pure and simple. The price is filling up with only the most expensive 98 RON fuel, and the GTR takes heaps of it. It is a true supercar and it need make no excuses to anything that costs under half a mil. As such, it’s bargain basement, but it still has a hard row to hoe. Lots of GTRs, only some of them genuine, have been privately imported and they’re a lead weight on resale value. And the price falls comfortably in Maserati territory.
